Should I clean AC coils myself or call a pro?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the recent summer heatwave, I noticed a strange odor lingering in the air when we use the central AC. It’s coming from somewhere inside the unit, but I’m not sure where. The coils on my apartment’s AC system are located behind a panel at the top of the indoor unit. Given that it’s been two years since they were last cleaned, should I attempt to clean them myself or is it better to call in a professional?

Absolutely, i'd recommend taking care of those ac coils professionally. in dubai and the uae, building codes and regulations can be quite strict, and it's crucial to ensure that your system is serviced by certified technicians who have the proper knowledge and tools for this job.
the coils are a prime breeding ground for mold and bacteria, especially after a harsh heatwave like you've just experienced. when not cleaned properly, these elements can release unpleasant odors into your living space. if you notice an odor coming from inside the ac unit, it's highly likely that the coils need attention. cleaning ac coils is not as straightforward as it may seem; there are specific techniques and materials required to do it safely and effectively. improper cleaning could potentially damage the delicate components of your air conditioning system or even void any warranties on it. moreover, professional cleaners have access to high-quality cleaning agents that are safe for the environment and human health. they can also check for any signs of wear and tear or other issues that you might not be able to detect without proper training. if you decide to go with a pro, there's no need to hesitate. contact us at 800-MOLDS (or call 800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com for professional mold and air quality assessments and remediation services. we offer expert advice tailored specifically for the dubai climate and local regulations. so, while it might be tempting to save a few bucks by doing it yourself, in this case, i'd strongly advise against it. let our team handle it - your indoor air quality is worth it! |
